Every time I go out to the garage it stinks of fuel, does deleting the boost return system mean remaining fuel vapour escapes from the throttle body as this remains open at idle / when the engine is off?
The complete fuel system is new including tank, lines and components. The smell is coming from the throttle body area and can't see any leaks.
If anybody else has experienced this please let me know.
Thanks
Rich

I didn't say fuel in the throttle body . The injectors sit in the inlet ports of the head. With the throttle body open at idle / with the engine off fuel vapour must feed back.
But you're right there must be a leak as the smell is too strong for just that. Will give it a good once over.
Cheers
Rich.

using original g60 rubber fuel pipes? they're probably all cracked at the ends. you can sometimes get a couple more years life out of them by snipping 5-10mm off the ends to get to nice uncracked pipe
Hi John every aspect of the fuel system is brand new so it's probably me not tightening a clip properly.
